14. Remove power from each unit/controller. Connect the network wiring, either BACnet MS/TP or
BACnet/IP. Reapply power to each unit/controller.
15. Using Tracer TU, connect directly to each unit controller. From the Controller Settings page, adjust
the Protocol by selecting “Enable BACnet MS/TP Communication” or “BACnet/IP”.
16. Unless DHCP is used to determine the unique IP address for each controller, use Tracer TU to
uniquely configure each IP address (BACnet/IP only).
17. Consider naming each unit controller with WCI coordinator in a way that easily identifies it as such.
(Example: VAV 08-03 Sensor Coordinator 1-4).
18. Proceed with device discovery and installation in Tracer Synchrony for all BACnet MS/TP or
BACnet/IP devices.
Using Tracer TU with Air-Fi® Wireless Sensors and BACnet MS/TP or
BACnet/IP
The existing Air-Fi® Wireless functionality in Tracer TU has been optimized for fully Air-Fi Wireless
systems, both network and sensor communication. As such, some of the functionality in Tracer TU
behaves differently for applications with Air-Fi® Wireless and BACnet MS/TP or BACnet/IP network
communications.
The following items summarize the Tracer TU differences between Air-Fi® Wireless networks (BACnet
over Zigbee) and Air-Fi® Wireless sensors applied with BACnet MS/TP or BACnet/IP network
communication.
Note: Connecting with the Tracer TU wireless adapter is recommended only for wireless troubleshooting
or testing. All other Tracer TU tasks should be accomplished with a direct USB connection or
connection through the Tracer SC/SC+.
• For wireless troubleshooting tasks, use the Tracer TU adapter to attach with the unit controller
acting as the coordinator. This provides the most functionality.
• Use one of the two options to open the network, a prerequisite to joining wirelessly:
1. Press the ‘Open Net’ button on the coordinator WCI.
2. Using Tracer TU, connect directly to any UC in the network and click ‘Open Network’ under the
Wireless menu.
